Abstract
Based on the hysteretic tests of steel-reinforced reactive powder concrete (RPC) columns and reinforced RPC columns, the finite element numerical models of these two kinds of RPC columns were established by OpenSees (2016). The feasibility of the model was verified by comparing the results of tests and simulation. On this basis, the nonlinear analysis of seismic performance of cross-shaped-steel-reinforced RPC columns was carried out. The influences of different factors such as longitudinal reinforcement ratio, steel sectional resistance moment, RPC grade, steel strength and section form of shape steel on the hysteretic performance were investigated. Finally, the hysteretic model of cross-shaped-steel-reinforced RPC columns was established. The results showed that, compared with H-shaped-steel-reinforced RPC columns, the peak bearing capacity of cross-shaped-steel-reinforced RPC columns was increased by 21.2%, but the displacement ductility was obviously reduced. With the increase of slenderness ratio, the lateral stiffness and horizontal bearing capacity of cross-shaped steel RPC columns decreased rapidly. In addition, the peak load was improved with the increase of RPC strength, steel sectional resistance moment and longitudinal reinforcement ratio. The hysteretic model was consistent with the simulation results, which can effectively predict the hysteretic characteristics of cross-shaped-steel-reinforced RPC columns. The research results can provide a theoretical basis for the engineering design and application of cross-shaped-steel-reinforced RPC columns.
